I'm trying to find over 100 old/superseeded updates for Windows Server 2003 x86 (for a project I'm making) but it's an exhausting task to do it by hand over Google or Microsoft search. Is there a way to make WSUS get them with only the filename or KBxxxxxxx? Either that or generate a file with all KBxxxxxxx direct links and I'll make a batch to extract the ones I want. Or perhaps an option to force WSUS to download all updates? I thought "skipdynamic=enable" would do the job but it didn't download anything.

Hi and welcome, johnyept,

please just

• download the trunk (http://trac.wsusoffline.net/changeset/6 ... format=zip),
• unpack the zip Archive wherever you want,
• execute ExtractDownloadLinks-all.cmd and
• search/filter the resulting file %TEMP%\DownloadLinks-all.txt for "windowsserver2003", for example.

Thank you very much! Managed to get more than half the hotfixes that way, the others got by making a batch that used wget to search google for "kbxxxxxxx 2003 en-us download site:www.microsoft.com" with the "I'm feeling lucky" button, most of the searches went directly to the hotfix, only had to search 10 by hand from about 200!

Doing the same for XP tomorrow
